Hello,
We will be holding the next joint Surrey and Hampshire LUG Bring-a-Box
meeting at the University of Surrey in Guildford, this weekend on
Saturday 10th November. Doors open from 11am until around 5pm.
The meeting will be held in the Teaching Block that we've been in for
the past few months and the room will be 18B. This is the room we were
in for the last joint meeting in September - the large one on the upper
floor.
For those new to Surrey, there will be signs up from the
front of the campus, near the main car park. It's a few minutes walk
from the car park, so if you wish to load or unload equipment from a
car, contact me off-list regarding access (use the address in my sig).
Everybody is welcome at our meetings - no membership or previous
experience is required. Feel free to bring along a computer or laptop
if you wish, we aim to provide power and internet access. Visitors
bearing power extension cables are especially welcome to our meetings.
We have quite a large number of talks and activities thanks to the kind
Hampshire folks, which are as follows:
Introduction to bitlbee (an IM/IRC gateway)
-- Tony Whitmore
Automated server installs with puppet (more of a demo)
-- Adrian Bridgett
News from the Ubuntu Developer Summit
-- Alan Pope (if he can make it)
Devolo HomePlug AV units
-- Adam Trickett
Fedora 8 copying/install session
-- Stephan Davies
All of this, plus the usual chaos. I'm still trying to get a second
room in the same building to run separate talks and activities in, so
hopefully we'll have one on the day.
The campus is a short walk from the main Guildford train
station and is just off the A3 if you're coming by car. Full details
are available on the wiki, including maps and detailed travel
information to the University campus:

If you have any questions, please reply to the list or to me directly
on the address below.
Hope to see you all again soon.
